Annotation | The probability of contracting diabetes and the probability of developing complications associated with the disease increase with age. Poor compliance contributes to older people's increased risk of developing complications associated with diabetes. Because poor medical compliance among older people is frequently due to age-related changes in cognitive processes, this article discusses how memory training and other cognitive interventions may help older diabetics better manage this disease.
